Adversarial machine learning with Flux.jl

The purpose of this tutorial is to explain how to embed a neural network model from Flux.jl into JuMP.

Required packages

This tutorial requires the following packages

using JuMP
import Flux
import Ipopt
import MathOptAI
import MLDatasets
import Plots

Data

This tutorial uses images from the MNIST dataset.

We load the predefined train and test splits:

train_data = MLDatasets.MNIST(; split = :train)

dataset MNIST:
  metadata  =>    Dict{String, Any} with 3 entries
  split     =>    :train
  features  =>    28×28×60000 Array{Float32, 3}
  targets   =>    60000-element Vector{Int64}

test_data = MLDatasets.MNIST(; split = :test)

dataset MNIST:
  metadata  =>    Dict{String, Any} with 3 entries
  split     =>    :test
  features  =>    28×28×10000 Array{Float32, 3}
  targets   =>    10000-element Vector{Int64}

Since the data are images, it is helpful to plot them. (This requires a transpose and reversing the rows to get the orientation correct.)

function plot_image(x::Matrix; kwargs...)
    return Plots.heatmap(
        x'[size(x, 1):-1:1, :];
        xlims = (1, size(x, 2)),
        ylims = (1, size(x, 1)),
        aspect_ratio = true,
        legend = false,
        xaxis = false,
        yaxis = false,
        kwargs...,
    )
end

function plot_image(instance::NamedTuple)
    return plot_image(instance.features; title = "Label = $(instance.targets)")
end

Plots.plot([plot_image(train_data[i]) for i in 1:6]...; layout = (2, 3))

Training

We use a simple neural network with one hidden layer and a sigmoid activation function. (There are better performing networks; try experimenting.)

predictor = Flux.Chain(
    Flux.Dense(28^2 => 32, Flux.sigmoid),
    Flux.Dense(32 => 10),
    Flux.softmax,
)

Chain(
  Dense(784 => 32, σ),                  # 25_120 parameters
  Dense(32 => 10),                      # 330 parameters
  NNlib.softmax,
)                   # Total: 4 arrays, 25_450 parameters, 99.617 KiB.

Here is a function to load our data into the format that predictor expects:

function data_loader(data; batchsize, shuffle = false)
    x = reshape(data.features, 28^2, :)
    y = Flux.onehotbatch(data.targets, 0:9)
    return Flux.DataLoader((x, y); batchsize, shuffle)
end

data_loader (generic function with 1 method)

and here is a function to score the percentage of correct labels, where we assign a label by choosing the label of the highest softmax in the final layer.

function score_model(predictor, data)
    x, y = only(data_loader(data; batchsize = length(data)))
    y_hat = predictor(x)
    is_correct = Flux.onecold(y) .== Flux.onecold(y_hat)
    p = round(100 * sum(is_correct) / length(is_correct); digits = 2)
    println("Accuracy = $p %")
    return
end

score_model (generic function with 1 method)

The accuracy of our model is only around 10% before training:

score_model(predictor, train_data)
score_model(predictor, test_data)

Accuracy = 9.75 %
Accuracy = 9.74 %

Let's improve that by training our model.

begin
    train_loader = data_loader(train_data; batchsize = 256, shuffle = true)
    optimizer_state = Flux.setup(Flux.Adam(3e-4), predictor)
    for epoch in 1:30
        loss = 0.0
        for (x, y) in train_loader
            loss_batch, gradient = Flux.withgradient(predictor) do model
                return Flux.crossentropy(model(x), y)
            end
            Flux.update!(optimizer_state, predictor, only(gradient))
            loss += loss_batch
        end
        loss = round(loss / length(train_loader); digits = 4)
        print("Epoch $epoch: loss = $loss\t")
        score_model(predictor, test_data)
    end
end

Epoch 1: loss = 1.871	Accuracy = 72.69 %
Epoch 2: loss = 1.2122	Accuracy = 82.87 %
Epoch 3: loss = 0.8913	Accuracy = 86.26 %
Epoch 4: loss = 0.7053	Accuracy = 88.12 %
Epoch 5: loss = 0.5885	Accuracy = 89.11 %
Epoch 6: loss = 0.5103	Accuracy = 89.87 %
Epoch 7: loss = 0.4552	Accuracy = 90.49 %
Epoch 8: loss = 0.4153	Accuracy = 90.77 %
Epoch 9: loss = 0.3849	Accuracy = 90.97 %
Epoch 10: loss = 0.3601	Accuracy = 91.28 %
Epoch 11: loss = 0.3405	Accuracy = 91.42 %
Epoch 12: loss = 0.3238	Accuracy = 91.77 %
Epoch 13: loss = 0.3097	Accuracy = 92.05 %
Epoch 14: loss = 0.297	Accuracy = 92.19 %
Epoch 15: loss = 0.2865	Accuracy = 92.44 %
Epoch 16: loss = 0.2768	Accuracy = 92.62 %
Epoch 17: loss = 0.2679	Accuracy = 92.79 %
Epoch 18: loss = 0.26	Accuracy = 92.83 %
Epoch 19: loss = 0.2522	Accuracy = 93.03 %
Epoch 20: loss = 0.2455	Accuracy = 93.38 %
Epoch 21: loss = 0.2391	Accuracy = 93.5 %
Epoch 22: loss = 0.2333	Accuracy = 93.57 %
Epoch 23: loss = 0.2278	Accuracy = 93.66 %
Epoch 24: loss = 0.2224	Accuracy = 93.76 %
Epoch 25: loss = 0.2172	Accuracy = 93.88 %
Epoch 26: loss = 0.2132	Accuracy = 93.94 %
Epoch 27: loss = 0.2084	Accuracy = 94.13 %
Epoch 28: loss = 0.204	Accuracy = 94.22 %
Epoch 29: loss = 0.2001	Accuracy = 94.31 %
Epoch 30: loss = 0.1964	Accuracy = 94.33 %

Here are the first eight predictions of the test data:

function plot_image(predictor, x::Matrix)
    score, index = findmax(predictor(vec(x)))
    title = "Predicted: $(index - 1) ($(round(Int, 100 * score))%)"
    return plot_image(x; title)
end

plots = [plot_image(predictor, test_data[i].features) for i in 1:8]
Plots.plot(plots...; size = (1200, 600), layout = (2, 4))

We can also look at the best and worst four predictions:

x, y = only(data_loader(test_data; batchsize = length(test_data)))
losses = Flux.crossentropy(predictor(x), y; agg = identity)
indices = sortperm(losses; dims = 2)[[1:4; (end-3):end]]
plots = [plot_image(predictor, test_data[i].features) for i in indices]
Plots.plot(plots...; size = (1200, 600), layout = (2, 4))

There are still some fairly bad mistakes. Can you change the model or training parameters improve to improve things?

JuMP

Now that we have a trained machine learning model, we can embed it in a JuMP model.

Here's a function which takes a test case and returns an example that maximizes the probability of the adversarial example.

function find_adversarial_image(test_case; adversary_label, δ = 0.05)
    model = Model(Ipopt.Optimizer)
    set_silent(model)
    @variable(model, 0 <= x[1:28, 1:28] <= 1)
    @constraint(model, -δ .<= x .- test_case.features .<= δ)
    # Note: we need to use `vec` here because `x` is a 28-by-28 Matrix, but our
    # neural network expects a 28^2 length vector.
    y, _ = MathOptAI.add_predictor(model, predictor, vec(x))
    @objective(model, Max, y[adversary_label+1] - y[test_case.targets+1])
    optimize!(model)
    @assert is_solved_and_feasible(model)
    return value.(x)
end

find_adversarial_image (generic function with 1 method)

Let's try finding an adversarial example to the third test image. The image on the left is our input image. The network thinks this is a 1 with probability 99%. The image on the right is the adversarial image. The network thinks this is a 7, although it is less confident.

x_adversary = find_adversarial_image(test_data[3]; adversary_label = 7);
Plots.plot(
    plot_image(predictor, test_data[3].features),
    plot_image(predictor, Float32.(x_adversary)),
)
